Swedish Cottage Marionette Theatre Concerts 2024

The shows are great but the seats can NOT be leveled the way they are. First they are VERY unconfortable with no back support and second kids cant see well, specially if a parent seats in front of them. A place like this HAS to have seats that goes up like stairs so everyone can have a good view of the stage.
